Ok.....how bout a full bolt on LS1?


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpWN8...ature=youtu.be

That LS1 ran 13.0@110mph, I ran 12.5@108mph. Looks like your full bolt on LS1 would fall way short.

Talking **** when you haven't even broke into the 12s.


(Not that 12s are a big deal)

During the day? Can you make one for me with it mounted on your rear bumper? I want to see how that does. Get some cool angles in general. Did you get the motorsport version? If not which one? I'm not sure what the difference is between the ones though.

Yes it will be during the day. I will try the adhesive mount on the rear bumper. I just bought the camera from best buy. The diffrence in the camera's are the mounts that they come with.The camera itself is the same. I just bought the camera and it came with adhesive mounts, helmet strap,head strap, and the pivot arm.It has the casing with the two diffrent trap doors for diffrent types of sound/wind resistance.

Sounds cool. I was just thinking something obvious, I bet the external mic wouldn't work with the camera outside the car because of wind noise.

I've always wondered how some vidoes with the Gopro you only hear wind and some videos like the Underground Racing ones it sounds perfect.

Well if you quit being a mouse and dick holder for more than 10 seconds you'd realize that was when I had a lid, bellows and 80mm MAF and SLPLM2 as my only mods, no tune, on one of the hottest days during Ohio in the summer, which means very bad conditions, no excuses, just explanations. If I didn't work 60 hour week on a regular basis I would love to hit the track up..

Ford Fanboy, If I were to even attempt to sink anymore money, even $150 for a tune and new O2's I'm certain with a bit of cold air and a few good hooks I will be hitting 12.5, If your Mach 1 is SOO bad, lets go from a 40 roll and see who gets the Thanksday TURKEY BECAUSE MY BIRD WILL BE GOBBLIN' THE WHOLE TIME IM SPANKIN DAT ***.
BTW I'm assuming that launch was on something other than $90 Kuhmos, and I'd like to see the 60', because on my 13.2 pass my 60 was 2.5 rolling into it, it had 12' in it then but the top end fell off because it was near 100 degrees.. I would like to see what mods he had done other than just "Full bolt ons", that doesn't really get into it, I mean there are bolt on cars in high 12's and some in mid 11's N/A, don't believe me pick up the new issue of Hot Rod mag..I've ran more than 1 Mach 1, and both with similar mods to you, one had gears and OR/H, and it was a freeway 60 roll, I hung right with him until 120 and we both let off, another was from a stoplight dig to about 3/4 mile, he was spraying and im sure he had something else done exhaust wise because it was no where near stock sounding, I know spray for sure. He was barely edging away from me, not sure of shot size, how long he sprayed etc., he did say he sprayed though.

The casing comes with two back covers. One is completly solid,the other is slotted. I think the solid would help with wind noise but we will find out tom. lol

the closed cover doesn't do much of anything. if you can mount it somewhere not completely blasted by wind it sounds good. But the rear bumper is the only spot i found that works..

If you ran Stopsign now from a stop you would lose. Period. Get more mods.
